Why I Cheated-- Love at First Sight



Love at First Sight—Why I Cheated


Cassandra George Sturges
 

I explained to a lady in line at Walmart that I was having some problems getting things to come together. I told her that something was missing and nothing had worked.


She told me about a friend. She said first, I must warn you—be careful because it can be very addictive-- before you know it, you will be looking for every opportunity you can find to get together around the house.


When I first met him, I thought he was cheap looking—definitely not my type. But, I thought, why not—looks can be deceiving and I am desperate.


When I took out his package—I mean when I took him out of the package--I was deeply disappointed and unimpressed.  He was quite small in size.  I thought to myself the lady in Walmart must have been much more desperate than I had ever imagined.


But, since we were already together and nothing else had worked—I squeezed him and out came this gooey, sticky, cloudy substance.


I put it everywhere on everything I could find. When there was nothing left, he cooled off, and I kissed him and thanked him for all of the pleasure that he had bestowed upon my life. We did it in every room in the house, just like the lady in Walmart said we would.

I asked him if he was in a relationship and he said that he was sticking it to millions of people around the world—both men and women. I told him that I didn’t mind sharing him as long as he was available whenever I needed him. 



I told him I was sure that my boyfriend wouldn’t mind—but even if he did mind—I needed him because he had a magic stick like no other man I had ever met.


The Glue gun stole my heart and I am completely and totally addicted. I made action figure dolls out of glue sticks, new nipples for all of my dolls, sunglasses, lips for my dolls, jewelry, and doll shoes. I am always thinking about new things to make and fix with my glue gun.


I bought every glue stick in Walmart over the summer. I used it to make everything I could imagine and then for extra pleasure I painted it and added gemstones.



Luther Ingram sang, a song called, “If Loving You is Wrong-I Don’t Want to be Right,” I finally understand the meaning of that song. If loving the Glue gun is wrong, I don’t want to be right. Lock me up –and throw away the key.

DIY Doll Shoes Tutorial How to Make Doll Thong Sandals




 DIY Doll Shoes Tutorial How to Make Doll Thong Sandals

By Cassandra George Sturges
One of the things that I have to remember when making doll shoes is that—the dolls are not going to be actually walking with the shoes on.

I know that sounds crazy—but sometimes I stress myself out with minor details as if the doll sandal needs a stronger glue or strap. 


So, when you are making these cute doll sandals, take a deep breath and remind yourself that your doll will not be walking with these shoes—at least not in this realm of reality.

Yes, she may have a role in the Movie Toy Story 4—but that is a completely different conversation.


 

 
I chose to use felt as the sandal trap, covered with lace.  People tell me that these two fabrics do not go together. However, I don’t believe in rules. I don’t believe that any other person on this planet have a right to tell other people how to be creative.

If you would like to make these shoes for your doll watch my YouTube Tutorial videos Part 1 and Part 2:

Part 1







I think one of the primary reasons that people lose their ability to be creative is because they listen to other people tell them what to make; what colors are acceptable for various projects;  and what mediums go together.

We are all creative beings. We came to planet earth to express our own unique individuality. Don’t let other people’s views, perspectives, and ideas about beauty prevent you from letting your creativity shine through.


If your doll does not have a split between her big toe and her other toes, use a strap to go across her foot. I like to use the E-6000 because it has a forgiving spirit. It will give you an opportunity to re-position your doll shoe parts-- until it is just the way you like it.
